A wide, angular sans-serif revival of Morris Fuller Benton's Bank Gothic, designed by Axel Pelletanche with alternate styles that allow optional small slab serifs.
About
Dank takes the blunt, rigid geometry of Bank Gothic (American Type Founders, 1930) as its starting point, retaining the wide silhouette and angular curves that have made that model ubiquitous in stadiums, logistics, and action-game marketing. Deliberately preserved irregularities give the rhythm a singular quality absent from the original. Alternate glyphs introduce small slab serifs, opening the character of the design beyond its dystopian associations.
Classification
Wide, angular sans-serif drawing directly from Morris Fuller Benton's Bank Gothic (1930), preserving the slab-adjacent, all-caps vernacular character of that model while adding alternate styles that introduce small slab serifs.
